Question to the Department for International Trade:

To ask the Secretary of State for International Trade, what representations he has made to his US counterpart on lifting the US ban on haggis imports.

We are working with the US authorities to ensure the restrictions on British lamb are lifted as soon as possible. The US has a longstanding ban on the use of animal lungs as food, but the Scottish haggis industry is working on a US-specific recipe to allow the industry access to the US market at the earliest opportunity.
